Couple of days back, we shared a report regarding the Samsung Galaxy C5. We also shared leaked images of the C5 and mentioned that Samsung was also working on a Galaxy C7. Apparently, those reports are true and both devices are now official.
The Samsung Galaxy C5 and C7 was recently launched in China and both smartphones sport similar designs which tend to copy the HTC10 smart phone with some traces of the iPhone 6/6s design.
Speaking on specs, the Samsung Galaxy C5 is just about 6.7mm thick, sports a 5.2inch Super Amoled display with 1080p (FHD) resolution, runs Android 6.0 marshmallow out of the box. It’s home button doubles as a fingerprint sensor.
Camera wise, the Galaxy C5 features a 16 megapixel back camera with f/1.9 aperture accompanied by an 8 megapixel front facing camera with same f/1.9 aperture.
Looking at the hardware, the device is powered by a snapdragon 617 (eight Cortex-A53, Adreno 405) processor and packs a battery capacity of 2,600mAh. The device is also a dual sim phone and supports 4G LTE connectivity.
The Samsung Galaxy C7 on the other hand, basically features a bigger display, a slightly faster processor, same camera specs as the C5 and of course, a bigger battery capacity.
